But how will we EVER get access underneath our deck!?
What happens here
Carefully mark the outline of the access panel on the existing deck skirting. Use a jigsaw or circular saw to precisely cut out this section of the skirting. It is essential to ensure that the opening is perfectly sized to provide a snug fit for the newly fabricated access panel, allowing it to swing open and close smoothly without catching or leaving excessive gaps. Precision in this step is crucial for both functionality and aesthetic integration.
Goal: Create a precise opening in the deck skirting for the new access panel.
